Transform low-resolution product images into high-quality assets for print, large displays, and zoom-enabled e-commerce. Learn how AI upscaling preserves detail while increasing size.
This guide is part of our AI Studio tool series:
You have a perfect product shot, but it's 800 pixels wide. Your print catalog needs 3000. Your website's zoom feature requires high resolution. Your trade show graphics need to fill a 10-foot backdrop.
Traditional upscaling—just stretching the image—produces blurry, pixelated results. Upscale Image uses AI to intelligently increase resolution while preserving and even enhancing detail.
Upscale Image analyzes your photograph and generates a higher-resolution version that maintains sharpness, texture, and visual quality. The AI understands what it's looking at—wood grain, fabric weave, metal hardware—and reconstructs these details at the larger size.
You can upscale by a specific factor (2x, 3x, up to 4x) or target a specific resolution (720p, 1080p, 1440p, 2160p). The tool handles the math and produces an image that looks like it was photographed at that resolution from the start.
Print requires significantly higher resolution than screen display. An image that looks sharp on your website may be unusable in a catalog. Upscale Image bridges this gap, letting you repurpose web assets for print without reshooting.
E-commerce platforms increasingly support deep zoom on product images. Customers want to examine grain patterns, joinery details, and fabric textures up close. Upscaling gives them the resolution to zoom without encountering pixelation.
Trade shows, showroom graphics, and retail displays need images that hold up at large physical sizes. Upscale Image lets you prepare assets for these applications from standard photography.
If you have valuable product photography in older, lower-resolution formats, upscaling can bring these assets up to current standards without reshooting.
Select your source image. The tool accepts common formats up to 10MB. The interface displays your current image dimensions.
Use the slider to choose your upscale multiplier from 1x to 4x. As you adjust:
Higher factors produce larger files and require more processing time.
In Advanced Settings, you can fine-tune:
Target Resolution: Instead of a factor, specify a target:
Output Format: Choose between JPG, PNG, or WebP based on your needs:
Noise Scale: Adjust how aggressively the AI reduces noise during upscaling. Lower values preserve original texture; higher values produce smoother results.
Seed: For reproducible results, specify a seed value. Leave randomized for varied outputs.
Click "Upscale Image" and wait for processing. Once complete, review the result and download directly or send to other tools.
AI upscaling is impressive but not magic. Better inputs produce better outputs:
More isn't always better:
Upscaling a poor 400px image to 4x won't produce a good 1600px result. Start with reasonable source quality.
Don't upscale beyond what you need:
Always review your upscaled image at 100% zoom. This reveals any artifacts or quality issues that might not be visible when the image is scaled down in the interface.
Your product database has web-optimized images at 1200px. Your designer needs 3600px minimum for the print catalog. Run each image through Upscale at 3x, and deliver print-ready assets without reshooting your entire line.
A customer wants to examine the mortise-and-tenon joinery on your dining table. Your product shot is 1500px—decent for the main view but pixelated at zoom. Upscale to 4500px, and they can inspect every detail.
You're producing a 10-foot backdrop for your booth. Even a 4000px image starts to show pixels at that scale. Upscale your hero shot to 8000px for a crisp display that looks professional up close.
You've found excellent product photography from 2015, but it's only 2000px wide—standard for that era. Upscale Image brings these assets into the 4K era, extending the life of your photography investment.
After upscaling, you'll see metadata showing:
The result preview lets you compare before and after. Download when satisfied.
Each upscale costs 2 credits regardless of factor or target resolution. Given the alternative—reshooting products or living with pixelated assets—this represents significant value for production workflows.
